SS Silv Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 (edited) Let the Soldiers buy from wherever they want. They are big boys and can handle it themselves. There are ALOT more crooked car dealers than the one in the article. Edited August 12, 2008 by SS Silv (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black2003SS Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 They are big boys and can handle it themselves. I had a huge resposne written out for this one, but my better judgement tells me I think I'll pass in lieu of starting WWIII in the forum. Soldiers, and any American for that matter, should be looked after and the behavior by the dealership is apparently unacceptable, although somewhat one sided. And avoiding this dealership might set an example to other stealerships out there. I love the "We are just trying to make a buck" line from the owners. riiight...

huero626 Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Well, I think it's good that the Army did that. In the end I think they are just trying to protect their soldiers from getting screwed by these dealers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolBlueSS Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Dealers like this give the entire industry a bad name. Crooked people piss me off to no end. There's good money to be made in this business the right way. Trying to pull one on a soldier is just wrong on so many levels. I hope everybody boycotts them, or they get their franchise pulled.

gixxerrider Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 I would argee with the Army's stand on this. But the only reason it was banned was because of a Officer was getting screwwed. Young sailors and Marines stationed in Norfolk are getting screwwed by car dealers everyday. Thas is why I tell my sailors that want to buy a car to take a Petty Officer or their Chief with them. Its all about leadership and setting up the junior troops for success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
